Likefather, Daughter BEMIDJI STATE UNIVERSITY The publication for alumni and friends of Bemidji State University Winter 2009 Around the Block Professor Explores the Art of Contradiction Establishing a Foothold Grad Connects with Entertainment Industry ike Father, L LIKE Daughter Leaving a Legacy Two stalwarts of the BSU family passed away this fall, giving us reason to pause and recount their legacy. Dr. Harold Peters, a professor emeritus of biology, died on November 10 at the age of 99. Former wrestling and football coach Chet Anderson, professor emeritus of physical education, died on November 19. He was 90. They had a combined service to Bemidji State of over 50 years. Although coming from different areas of campus, coach Anderson and scientist Dr. Peters shared personal qualities that serve as standard-bearers for us today. They were passionate about their work, whether it was charting a course to conference champion- ships or conducting fieldwork to track the lifecycles and habits of insects. They inspired others – sharing their enthusiasm, knowledge, and wisdom with not only their budding charges, but also their colleagues and community members. They were com- passionate, showing a personal interest in the lives of those they coached and taught. More important than the campus facilities that bear their names are the people whose lives they shaped. Some followed in their footsteps and became coaches and professors. All have led richer lives having had them as teachers, colleagues, and friends. Their passion, inspiration, and compassion will continue to have an impact at Bemidji State University for years to come. Bemidji State University Dr. Jon E.

    A magazine for alumni and friends SPRING/SUMMER 2013 WIZARD with a PURPOSE www.BemidjiState.edu | 1 Moses Tsang achieves in finance while Pro TecTing na Ture PRESIDENT R. HANSON PresidenT’s Message Welcome to BSU’s biannual magazine – outstanding as ever, and now with a new name, Bemidji State University. The former name, Horizons, had been in place for many years, but it was time this important publication had a clearer connection to the institution. Once you’re done reading about the people and progress that make us all so proud, I hope you will give your copy an honored place on your coffee table at home or at work. As our 2013 Commencement ceremony approaches, how fitting that the cover story for this spring/summer edition features Moses Tsang. We are thrilled he will be in Bemidji to receive an honorary doctorate in recognition of his accomplishments through both career and service. I am also pleased to announce that another outstand- ing alum, Marine Corps Lieutenant General Thomas D. Waldhauser, will be honored as our Distinguished Minnesotan and deliver the keynote address. These pages are filled with evidence of the enormous difference Bemidji State makes every day, especially through our wonderful students and graduates, who achieve, lead and serve in so many ways. You will read about the rapid expansion of our international studies programs under the leadership of Provost Dr. Martin Tadlock, meet several more of our “Students to Watch,” catch up on university news and learn more about the lives of such impressive alums as Bill Colter, Rita Albrecht and Peggy and Sam Johnson.

  • Minnesota 2012 President Poll
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE December 8, 2010 INTERVIEWS: DEAN DEBNAM 888-621-6988 / 919-880-4888 (serious media inquiries only please, other questions can be directed to Tom Jensen) QUESTIONS ABOUT THE POLL: TOM JENSEN 919-744-6312 Obama leads all Republicans in MN, Romney bests Pawlenty Raleigh, N.C. – President Obama won Minnesota by about ten points over John McCain two years ago. At this early point in the 2012 cycle, PPP finds that the candidate who comes closest to beating him is not the one who would like to ride his record from two terms as the state’s governor to the White House. In fact, it is the same candidate who comes closest in his own two native states—nearby Michigan and far-away Massachusetts—as well as nationally and in a number of other states: Mitt Romney. But even Romney comes no closer than five points, and Obama tops the candidates other than Romney and Tim Pawlenty by double digits. Pawlenty can only muster 43% to Obama’s 51%, which essentially mirrors the governor’s 43-53 job approval rating as he prepares to leave office. Meanwhile, Romney holds Obama to 47% and gets 42% himself. Mike Huckabee lags, 40-50; Newt Gingrich, 38-51; and Sarah Palin, frequently bringing up the rear, 36-54. As in Michigan, the president has his base almost universally behind him, earning 92% (against Romney) to 95% (Palin and Pawlenty) of Democrats’ votes. But no Republican can do better than 90% of the GOP (Pawlenty); Palin gets only 76%. Obama also wins independents by two (Romney) to 25 points (Palin).
